STUDENTS
Welcome to Furman Middle School!
To all of our incredible 6th, 7th, and 8th graders—welcome to Furman Middle School! You’re stepping into an exciting new chapter of your life, and we couldn’t be more excited to have you here. Middle school is a significant time as you grow older, learn more about yourself, and take on new challenges and opportunities. The choices you make now, both big and small, will have a lasting impact on your future. That’s why we want to help you make the most of every moment.
At Furman Middle, you’ll have access to a wide range of experiences that will allow you to explore your interests and talents. Whether you love the arts, technology, sports, or academics, we’ve got something for you! You can express yourself creatively in art, band, chorus, or theatre, or dive into our career and technology education programs where you’ll develop real-world skills for your future. If you’re curious about science, technology, engineering, and math, we offer STEM courses that will challenge you to think critically and innovate.
Beyond the classroom, we have a host of extracurricular activities where you can stay active, build teamwork skills, and form friendships that will last a lifetime. Join one of our sports teams, like baseball, basketball, cheer, football, softball, track & field, or volleyball, and compete with pride as a member of Furman’s athletic community.
But that’s not all! We also offer after-school and summer programs through our partnership with Engaging Creative Minds. These programs provide enriching opportunities where you can continue to learn, grow, and discover new passions outside of the regular school day.
As you take advantage of these opportunities, it’s essential to maintain a well-balanced schedule. Doing well academically is important, but so is taking the time to explore new activities, spend time with friends and family, and enjoy life. Middle school is a time to try new things, make memories, and have fun, so remember to strike that balance and embrace each day.
Most importantly, enjoy being young! You’re only in middle school once, and this is your time to shine. We’re here to support you every step of the way, and we can’t wait to see what amazing things you will accomplish during your time at Furman Middle School. Welcome to the Furman family—we’re so glad you’re here!
